Been to a couple of national parks - Big Cypress and the Everglades and added to our wildlife count. Saw loads of gators, mostly little weeners and some turtles, snakes and various birds. Drove down to the Florida Keys which was reet nice. Wandered the streets of Key West and stayed at the worst campsite ever - no grass just gravel to pitch your tent on. It was like sleeping in a cat litter tray. From there we went to the cheapest campsite ever, $10 a night (...

FINAL DESTINATION N to the Y to the motherloving C! Started off with a crazy taxi ride form the airport - speeding and swerving between lanes. Arrived at our immense hostel, biggest in the world apparently, but fairly deserted. We were in a 12 bed dorm but it was never full thankfully 'cos there were very few showers so would have been a bit of a mare.

We had a right panic on the next ...

Stopped briefly at a bizarre tourist attraction where there were 10 cadillacs buried nose down in the middle of a field. Then drove to Dallas and stayed in Fort Worth - another motel, there are no hostels in these parts. Did some activit...

Finally we arrived at the big boy of canyons, and it sucked! Haha of course not, it was as grand as you would expect. We were going to continue our gruelling regime by hiking down to the bottom but lost our minds and decided to blow the rest of our funds on a flight over the canyon in a whirlybird. It bought back terrible memories of 'naaaam. We were riding backwards and couldn't see a thing! Not really, there were large windows either side of us and we could t...
